Part of me would love to see that, like if there's another January 6 just before the election, but I also worry how bad their rampage could get. What happens if they start taking out their anger and hate on random black or hispanic people or openly LGBT people or just people they suspect of being democrats in general?

Also, if the left are really serious about removing the tumor that are the crazy republicans, they need to show a little passion, inspire their base and fight for it. So far, they're so focused on appealing to the middle ground that a lot of people who would be excited to vote for AOC or Bernie Sanders are sitting out elections.
